Hello everyone! I'm Sarah, and I previously played here and then life ate me and I had to go away for a while :( I actually didn't write at all for like 4 months and it was awful. But my life is looking better and I have actual days off work, so I'm excited to get back into the swing of writing. For those that don't know me, I'm a high school teacher/Speech & Debate coach in CA (so PST) and I love plotting on AIM (oliverwoodwood-hit me up any time!).

I'm bringing back this gentleman right here. Eddie Carmichael is a Ravenclaw '97, and a cursebreaker from Gringott's. He's a very annoying combination of blase about life and then super passionate about the specific things he enjoys. He's excitable, curious and a generally fun person to have around, if a little frustrating at times. Like his tendency to not be able to deal with emotions and run away from commitment, which is actually just what he returned from doing. Last he was here, he started an intense fling with Susan Bones, realized he had feelings for her, and promptly volunteered for the next overseas mission...and the next. He realizes that he probably messed things up forever with her, but now he's back, helping finish the mission at Gringotts and assisting with the training of the latest round of cursebreakers (including his friend Rose who he is sure will give him an earful). He's obsessed with Time Turner's Tales, feel free to discuss it with him. Um....a lot more in his bio here.

Okay, give me all your things! I've missed you all!

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH EDDIE!!!

Good to have both of you back :)

So, a brief recap of where my girls + guy is at:

Rose, is finishing up as a trainee and will soon become a fully trained Cursebreaker. She will have kept Owling/journaling Eddie about the vault she's been working on at Gringott's - sometimes maybe even asking advice or simply venting - and to let him know to get back home now, because his sister's a right menace sometimes. Also, she's got a dog, or rather a "wiggle", because somehow her 3-month old Irish Wolfhound pup just haven't registered as a dog with her, not after she found it with a couple of others in a box on the stairs in front of Rolf's flat. The wiggle's name is Ant, short for Anteros.

Melinda may have sent an Owl or two to Eddie, but nothing more than that. She's been a little moody, especially around Valentine's Day, but has now started dating Viktor, a little.

Alicia... will have Owled Eddie to let him know he sucks for doing that to Susan and then let him know to take care and take the time he needs to get his head straight again. She's also quit her job as a Healer with the end of this Quidditch season, so she can go get a degree in physiotherapy.

Finbar has started dating Cho.

And that is where they're at now.

Aww Rosie. He answered her and she was his lifeline that wasn't his sister. He's sorry he sucks and if she got any flack for his not answering anyone haha. He's going to help for the end of her training :D He loves her and we should throw them together lol He can't wait for the wiggle!

He doesn't disagree, Alicia, which is why he probably sent like ONE owl back saying like "I know, I'm sorry" and then nothing. He will bring flowers and beg for forgiveness for being a tit/shit friend.

Aww Mellll :/ I miss him and Oliver haha. But Eddie is glad she is dating someone cool and he will hope Mel hits him about the head a bit and will still be friends.

Daww he likes his Ravenclaw ladies dating :D And quidditch blokes it looks like haha

:D

Ha! I doubt Rose got any flack for him being gone and if she did she would have shrugged it off. Also, she doesn't think he sucks, even though she's missed (the sucking is just Alicia registering her opinion followed by her registering her concern for him). As for Ant, the wiggle, Eddie would know that Rose is terrified of dogs. Dennis and Rolf are highly amused by the fact that she's now sharing her bed with a pup who's going to end up, oh, about the same size as her.

No begging for forgiveness with Ali needed. She just wanted him to know :)

Yeah, I miss them too :/ The thing with Viktor is new, very new, and it's been building sloooooowly. She may lose her cool with Eddie if she ever finds out why he left.

LOL. Yeah, they ARE dating Quidditch blokes, though Mel claims she really isn't a Quidditch fan! It just happened!

Hey Sarah, it's Mercy. I've still got Zacharias here (

unspeakableness), but I"ve also got Astoria (

astoryuntold) and Tristan Travers (this journal). Of the three, Tristan and Eddie would know each other. They were in the same year in the same house in the same dorm. Tristan was prefect and then Head Boy and then a Death Eater and then in prison and now out of prison on probation and working at Wingbeat. He's got more info in his journal if you want to check it out, and he, along with the other two, are always up for plots and random interactions. Just hit me up if you want to do something! :)

Welcome back! And sorry this is short. I'm short on time and flailing a bit about a birthday party and not being ready! :X

Hi Mercy! And yay for Zacharias, he will probably still poke him a bit for fun. Astoria he wouldn't know, but randoms are fun and he's friendly! For Tristan, he would not have been keen to learn about the whole DE thing, and he probably gave him a little trouble back in the day when they were dormmates, but he believes in second chances (lord knows he needs them) so he might try and be friendly and let him have that second chance etc.

And yay, no worries, lets do stuff soon :D

	Hi! No idea how Mils and Eddie would run into each other, other than something completely random, but random can be good. We can chat. :) Glad to see you again! (Reply to this) (Thread)

Wb! Hopefully we can do stuff this time :D

Rolf would be pertinent to Eddie through his connection to Rose, who is his beloved girlfriend. So we should do something with the two of them sometime.

Viktor is dating Melinda, or starting to, at least! So that might be pertinent :) He's hoping it will be going somewhere.

Pandora is still at the shop and doing a little more around though she's had some trouble with some haters recently. Always always open to something random or whatever. Love plots.

And I don't know if you know Genie, but she's my younger, werewolf girl who no one, yet, knows is one though at some point there will be stuff, unknown at this point.

Open to all the ideas. Please hit me up any time. gelseydutchwood on AIM and awhisperinthewind at gmail dot com.

	Aww yay! And yes, we can definitely do stuff :D Rolf will get the side eye initially from Eddie because he's unreasonably protective of Rosie considering she can more than handle herself. He will like him immensely. Pandora! He will come visit and chat up, he understands all about having haters. Aww werewolf girl _ Randoms are good! (Reply to this) (Parent)

Welcome back! I forget who (if anyone) is new since your time, so I shall just update on all of them:

Seamus is still Seamus, not much has changed there. He is not going to be happy with Eddie's treatment of Susan and though he's the least scary of his trio of friends, he's also the only one that can threaten to bar Eddie from a pub.

Dominic is Dominic - he needs more plot, and especially more non-work-related plot.

Lucy is living in the magical world now (with Susan, actually) and has a job and everything. I don't know if Susan would have talked to her about Eddie - I think probably not, so there's a clean slate there.

Bryony still lives with her aunt, still paints, etc. They should still talk Time Turner's Tales because her aunt still writes for it.

Not sure if Greg is new to you or not, (Greg Goyle at

goyle_g. He's pretty much like he is in canon. Big, slow, not too bright, likes sweets, has no use for Ravenclaws. Unless Eddie's nice to him and doesn't call him stupid, in which case Greg can be surprisingly nice - on occasion.

I think Greg is new or was just introed when I was here so yay awesome!

He understands, he was a dick, he hopes to make it up to her eventually but you know...idiots.

Well, Eddie could always use more friends that don't want to punch him in the genitals.

Yes! He will want to discuss ALL THE THINGS.

Eddie doesn't go in for calling humans in front of him stupid, so they could at least get on okay.

	goodlight 2015-05-04 05:14 pm UTC (link)
	Yess. I am so into Eddie and Dominic being friends. Dominic wants all the cool travelling cursebreaking stories, and will also offer sage and wise relationship advice like 'don't be an idiot, you idiot'. (He's friendly with Susan, but he also has relationship mistakes in his past he is not the most proud of, so will not punch Eddie anywhere below the waist.) (Reply to this) (Parent)

Hi again! Welcome back. I'm pretty sure at least one of mine is new to you.

Dean - Has bought a clue and knows he loves Seamus, is unimpressed with Eddie after what he did with Susan. Also he's collecting things for a project which may or may not interest Eddie. Any questions feel free to ask.

Charlie Weasley - Not much new with him, still owns the club, Wingbeat, and he's doing some renovations which should make it more accessible for people, he got a new tattoo not so long ago.

Gwenog Jones - quidditch goddess extraordinaire who had an injury part way through last season that is playing havoc with her secret ballet skills. Harpies finished top of the table pre-playoffs though, so she's pleased about that.

Um basically barring Dean's annoyance I think random is the way to go.

Gwenog is new, but the others are deliciously familiar. HELLO :D

Dean...so glad he figured his shit out haha. And Eddie is unimpressed with himself, tbh. Oo, he shall :D

Eddie might try hiding in Wingbeat a bit if everyone in Finnigans wants to hex him.

Gwen! He thinks she awesome even if he doesn't know her personally, and there's always randoms.

So yay, annoyance :D

	I could not for the life of me remember when you left! His realisation is recent and much fun to play with, even if only Susan knows so far. Charlie welcomes all customers who follow the rules! Hooray randomness. I think she's awesome too, but I'm biased. She can be a bit scary. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	How can you want to set him on fire, Susan? And ruin all this? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	adipucey 2015-05-04 05:16 pm UTC (link)
	AH!! Cho is SO SO SO happy to see him back!! (and I'm SO SO SO HAPPY to see YOU back!!) (Cho IS happy, even if he has terrible taste in leading men on the soaps). I've got Adrian, Cormac, Cho, Romilda, and Chris Summers (hufflepuff, basically American after many years there, lol) - they're all up for your use if you like! (Reply to this)

Hello there stranger.

So I have my three.

Blaise who likely doesn't pay him much mind. That doesn't mean though that they can't interact and find some reason to know each other. I'm just not the best of thinking of those things on the fly in intro posts.

Marietta definitely knows him and would like to be on friendly terms with him as she is with most of her house mates from her year.

Hermione likely knows of him and will be friendly. Again, I suck at coming up with links when I'm half brain dead at 11:00 pm. Blame me not Mione.
